Objective: To develop a smart blood donation service assistant for popularizing donation-related knowledge to blood donors via intelligent Q&A support, thereby enabling precise service delivery. Methods: Based on the operational scenarios of the Zhejiang Provincial Blood Center, the system utilized the open-source Dify platform for agent orchestration, and integrated with the DeepSeek model as the language processing engine to support online real-time interaction. External tools, including the Amap API and MySQL database queries, were encapsulated via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). A professional blood knowledge base for Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) was constructed using the BGE-M3 embedding model. An innovative dual-large language model collaborative verification mechanism was introduced to design the overall framework. The system was deployed privately using Docker containerization, and offline closed-loop optimization was achieved through customized Python scripts. Results: An interactive interface for blood donors was developed by integrating the chatflow Web component from Dify. The intelligent assistant Agent can recommend optimal blood donation sites and navigation routes by invoking the Amap API based on the donor's location. The Blood Donation Knowledge Agent enables timely responses to inquiries, along with reasonable suggestions and reminders. This agent specializes in the field of voluntary blood donation, empowering the assistant to answer doubts and questions for blood donors in the form of intelligent question-and-answer interaction. It also guides users through preliminary self-assessments, helping potential donors identify eligibility issues beforehand, thereby effectively increasing the on-site success rate of blood donation and reducing resource waste. Conclusion: The smart blood donation assistant validates the feasibility of the "Dify+MCP+RAG" technical architecture within the blood transfusion informatization field. The assistant not only improves the service experience for blood donors, but also, ensures the sustainable evolution of the system through its modular design and closed-loop optimization mechanism, thus providing valuable insights for the intelligent transformation of traditional blood donation service systems.

Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is an inherited disease caused by a deficiency of the enzyme arylsulfatase A (ARSA). Lentivirus-modified autologous hematopoietic stem cell gene therapy (HSCGT) has recently been approved for clinical use in pre and early symptomatic children with MLD to increase ARSA activity. Unfortunately, this advanced therapy is not available for most patients with MLD who have progressed to more advanced symptomatic stages at diagnosis. Patients with late-onset juvenile MLD typically present with a slower neurological progression of symptoms and represent a significant burden to the economy and healthcare system, whereas those with early onset infantile MLD die within a few years of symptom onset. We conducted a pilot study to determine the safety and benefit of HSCGT in patients with postsymptomatic juvenile MLD and report preliminary results. The safety profile of HSCGT was favorable in this long-term follow-up over 9 years. The most common adverse events (AEs) within 2 months of HSCGT were related to busulfan conditioning, and all AEs resolved. No HSCGT-related AEs and no evidence of distorted hematopoietic differentiation during long-term follow-up for up to 9.6 years. Importantly, to date, patients have maintained remarkably improved ARSA activity with a stable disease state, including increased Functional Independence Measure (FIM) score and decreased magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lesion score. This long-term follow-up pilot study suggests that HSCGT is safe and provides clinical benefit to patients with postsymptomatic juvenile MLD.

Objective:To explore the value of Neoseq in screening and diagnosis of neonatal fatty acid oxidation disorders (FAOD).Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted on 163 500 live births in Changzhou city from April 2015 to April 2021. The following two models were adopted for FAOD screening and diagnosis. (1) Traditional mode: Heel blood samples were obtained from all subjects for initial screening using tandem mass spectrum (TMS), followed by next-generation sequencing (NGS) and other differential diagnostic testings for those with positive results. (2) Neoseq: Neoseq was performed on the true positive, negative and false positive cases according to the traditional mode screening results. The detection rate, additional discovery, reporting period, and other parameters of the two models for FAOD were described and compared.Results:(1) Detection and diagnosis of FAOD: A total of 18 confirmed cases of FAOD were detected through the traditional model, with an incidence of 1/9 083 in Changzhou city. The positive rate was 0.55% (907/163 500) for initial TMS and 0.04% (73/163 500) for the second. The positive predictive value was 2.0%(18/907), with a false positive rate of 98%(889/907) in the initial screening. (2) The results of Neoseq: ①Pathogenic mutations were detected in 16 of the 18 confirmed cases, and the coincidence rate of mutation sites between the two methods was 16/18. The other two confirmed cases were missed diagnosed by Neoseq, including one β-ketothiolase deficiency with only one detected pathogenic mutation and one medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency without any detected pathogenic mutation. ②No pathogenic mutations were detected in the 57 false-positive cases by Neoseq. ③Among the 100 negative cases in initial screening, DUOX2 heterozygous mutation, and MTTL1 hemizygous mutation were detected in one case each. ④The median period of results reporting was 43.5 d (28-104 d) for the traditional mode and 12 d (10-15 d) for the Neoseq mode. Conclusions:Neoseq has a high detection rate for FAOD. Combined with TMS screening, Neoseq reduces the false-positive rate of biochemical screening, rapidly identifies genetic causes by shortening the results waiting time and covers diseases that couldn't be detected by traditional biochemical methods.

Endometriosis(EMs) is a common chronic inflammatory gynecological disease,affecting about 5%-10% of women of childbearing age worldwide,and has always been a major challenge in clinical treatment. Huposan, derived from the Experiential Prescriptions for Universal Relief (《普济本事方》), has the effects of moving qi, activating blood,expelling blood stasis, and relieving pain. It is often used to treat EMs clinically and has achieved good curative effect. The relevant studies on the treatment of EMs by Huposan were retrieved from databases, such as CNKI,PubMed,Wanfang Data, and VIP for summarizing the mechanisms of action and clinical application of Huposan in the treatment of EMs, aiming to provide ideas and references for the basic research and clinical application of Huposan. As revealed by basic experiments,Huposan could exert therapeutic effects on EMs through resisting cell adhesion by reducing intercellular adhesion molecule 1(ICAM-1)content,decreasing concentrations of matrix metalloproteinase(MMP)-2 and MMP-9 against ectopic endometrial invasion,inhibiting vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)expression for antiangiogenesis,inhibiting the expression of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-1,reversing helper T cell(Th)1/Th2 balance shifts to regulate the body's immune mechanism,and reducing the serum levels of nitric oxide(NO)and nitric oxide synthase(NOS). In clinic practice,Huposan has the effects of reducing ectopic lesions,relieving pain symptoms,reducing serum carbohydrate antigen 125(CA125)content,improving hormone levels,regulating endocrine and immune factors,and reducing postoperative recurrence rate. Huposan plays a therapeutic role in EMs through multiple targets and mechanisms,which is worthy of further exploration and clinical promotion.

Autophagy is a lysosome-mediated catabolic process that captures and degrades dysfunctional organelles and useless proteins during cellular stress process, which plays a dual role in cervical cancer. In the early stage of cervical cancer, autophagy inhibits the occurrence and development of cervical cancer by prohibiting the accumulation of oncogenic p62 protein. In the advanced stage of cervical cancer, inhibition of autophagy of cancer cells enhances the sensitivity of cancer cells to chemotherapeutic drugs, thus inhibiting their proliferation. In recent years, the research on Chinese medicine monomers regulating autophagy in the treatment of cervical cancer has attracted extensive attention from scholars at home and abroad. Chinese medicine monomers regulate the autophagy of cervical cancer cells through multiple pathways and multiple targets, so as to increase the apoptosis rate and reduce the resistance of cancer cells to chemotherapeutic drugs. Therefore, this paper reviewed the mechanism of Chinese medicine monomers in inhibiting cervical cancer through autophagy, expecting to find new breakthroughs in the discovery and development of preventive and therapeutic drugs for cervical cancer. By reviewing the literature, it was found that in the early stage of cervical cancer, Chinese medicine monomers activated autophagy to promote apoptosis of cancer cells, and the main mechanism was to increase lysosomal membrane permeability and chemotherapeutic sensitivity and activate intact autophagy flow. In the advanced stage of cervical cancer, inhibition of autophagy reduced the sensitivity of cancer cells to chemotherapy drugs by inhibiting the formation of autophagosomes and autolysosomes. The treatment of cervical cancer by Chinese medicine monomers regulating autophagy has achieved certain effect, but there are few clinical experimental studies and lack of reliable clinical theoretical basis. Therefore, it is essential to carry out more clinical experimental studies on Chinese medicine monomers regulating autophagy to treat cervical cancer, thus finding more reliable theoretical basis for the treatment of tumors.

Objective:To explore the method of establishing a modified demyelination and myelination regeneration model induced by dicyclohexanone oxalyl dihydrazone (CPZ) in mice with multiple sclerosis (MS), and to analyze the image markers of demyelination and myelination regeneration in mouse MS model.Methods:After the intragastrically administered with sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMCNa) for one week, a total of 30 C57BL/6 male mice were randomly divided into the control group ( n=10), the demyelination group ( n=10), and the remyelination group ( n=10). The mice of the control group were immediately performed MR scanning and pathological specimen obtaining; the mice in the demyelination group were administered with intragastrical CPZ-CMCNa once a day for 6 weeks for inducing demyelination, then received MR scanning and specimen obtaining with the same protocols used in control group; the mice in the remyelination group were administered with intragastrical CPZ-CMCNa once a day for six weeks for demyelination, then CPZ was withdrawn and normal diet was given for another four weeks. Then MR scanning and specimen obtaining were performed with the same protocols used in the other two groups. Regions of interest (ROIs) were set at the rostrum of corpus callosum (rCC), the bilateral normal appearing white matters (NAWM) of the rostrum of corpus callosum, and the bilateral cerebral cortex (Cx). The normalized T 2WI (T 2-normalized), fractional anisotropy (FA), mean diffusivity (MD), axial diffusivity (AD), and radial diffusivity (RD) values were compared among the three groups by one-way ANOVA. Results:The demyelination and remyelination mice model of MS were successfully established. The T 2-normalized values of rCC in control group, demyelination group and remyelination group were 0.47±0.03, 0.72±0.04, 0.54±0.04, respectively, with statistically significant difference found ( F=90.511, P<0.05). Post-hoc multiple comparisons showed significant differences among those groups ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference of T 2-normalized value in NAWM and Cx among the three groups ( P>0.05). Moreover, there were significant differences in the FA values (0.36±0.04, 0.29±0.03, and 0.32±0.05), the MD values [(0.572±0.015), (0.598±0.034), and (0.626±0.043)×10 -3 mm 2/s], the AD values [(0.79±0.04), (0.77±0.06), and (0.83±0.04)×10 -3 mm 2/s], and the RD values [(0.46±0.02), (0.51±0.03), and (0.53±0.05)×10 -3 mm 2/s] of rCC of the control group, the demyelination group, and the remyelination group (all P<0.05). Significant difference was found in FA values between the demyelination group and the control group ( P<0.05), and in MD values between the remyelination group and the control group ( P<0.05), as well as in AD values between the remyelination group and the demyelination group ( P<0.05). There were also significant differences in RD values between the remyelination group and the control group, and the demyelination group and the control group (all P<0.05). However, no significant difference was found in all diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) metrics of NAWM and Cx among the three groups (all P>0.05). The LFB-eosin staining showed that the myelin sheath of rCC was lost in the demyelination group, and the rCC was partially regenerated and repaired in the remyelination group. Conclusion:The modified CPZ-CMCNa model can selectively induce demyelination and remyelination of rCC, and the changes of demyelination and remyelination of rCC in the modified CPZ-CMCNa model can be quantitatively detected by T 2WI combined with DTI, which might provide related theoretical basis for the study on dynamic changes of MS lesions.
